"The initial location of my teleportation was just around the corner. I soon met Chu Haoman and learned the truth of the matter.
However, Qishui'ao, which is the center of the mutation, is not allowed in or out. Even if you have Zhenghunxiang, you can't leave.
The only way to leave is to cause a mutation...
That is to actively stimulate the resentment in the bronze ware and shatter the illusion of Qishui'ao."
Wang Linian said: "The bronze ware contains not only the resentment of Zhuo Lu, but also the resentment of countless dead people in the Shang Dynasty for hundreds of years.
Its accumulated resentment has reached the limit of overflowing, otherwise it would not invade the present world in the near future and drag Chu Haoman in.
If Liao Kaifeng and others knew that they were trapped here forever,
It is very likely that they will take the initiative to destroy the bronze vessel, release the countless resentments contained in it, and leave while the illusion dissipates."
His tone remained calm, without any emotion, "The safety of Taiyuan County is more important than anyone or anything.
Judging from the information of Liao Kaifeng and Yan Yan, they have a certain probability of making a choice that is beneficial to them.
If these people reach an agreement and join forces, even I may not be able to suppress them.
In order to prevent the worst case scenario from happening, I hid my identity and attacked secretly before everyone gathered together, dividing them and defeating them."
"A certain probability?"
Yu Yong's expression was gloomy and uncertain, and he said: "Just out of a certain probability, you disregarded the morality of the world and killed the people hired by the Wang family of Taiyuan yourself.
They were not even given a chance to choose.
If I hadn't been lucky, you might have killed me."
"..."
Wang Linian glanced at him indifferently and said calmly: "Chu Haoman convinced me that I believe in Ji Xingwang and Guan Anyan from Luli Academy. But he can't guarantee the character of others.
You are not from Taiyuan County, so even if the entire Taiyuan County is destroyed, you will not be too sad about it - I will not bet the safety of my relatives, family, and people on the benevolence, morality, and sentiments of the country monks."
"Even if it costs you yourself, will you be trapped here forever?"
Yu Yong shook his head and said gloomily: "You people with the fifth surname and Qiwang are really crazy."
"If you are not crazy, how can you survive in the troubled times of the Jin Dynasty and the late Sui Dynasty?"
Wang Linian said calmly: "Since we can't go out, people outside can't get any information. According to the Taiyuan Wang family's practice, when encountering this kind of situation, they will stand still, set up a defense line on the outside, and send multiple teams to explore.
p>
If there is no change and all the teams lose communication, then the Zhenfu Division will be notified - and the Zhenfu Division's solution is usually to disperse the surrounding people and set the area as a restricted area, as if it does not exist."
Wang Linian did not lie. Even Zhenfusi was unable to solve all the changes in the Yu Kingdom.
One of their important tenets is that if something is stable and has not gotten worse or better, then don't change it.
Until something happens or the situation deteriorates rapidly, then think of ways to solve it.
"Life is what I want, and righteousness is what I want. You can't have both. You have to sacrifice life for righteousness."
Chu Haoman smiled bitterly and said: "I cannot allow changes to occur for my own selfish interests and threaten the safety of the people of Taiyuan County.
I can't stay out of it and watch the situation gradually get worse.
So my solution is to sacrifice."
Guan Anyan's face trembled, "Sacrifice?"
"Yeah. It's up to me to lie down in that bronze vessel."
Chu Haoman took a deep breath, "That temple is an alienated object made by a businessman. Its essence is to torture people and press them to the point of death. When they are dying, they can glimpse the avenue of heaven and earth and assist the fortune teller in making predictions.
The fuel of hemorrhoids is pain, resentment, and hatred.
But if the person who is in trouble has a noble purpose and no resentment,
Then it will in turn weaken it, delay the outbreak of mutation, and even completely purify this evil."
"...Have you tried it?"
Ji Xingwang, who had been silent until now, suddenly said.
Chu Haoman was silent for a moment, and forced a wry smile on his pale face, "Yes, I have tested it twice before you guys came.
Once you step into the dark and airtight cave, all the suffering of thousands of victims in the past will be inflicted on you. It is not an exaggeration to say that thousands of ants will eat your heart and your body will be shattered into pieces.
Every part of the body is suffering from severe pain.
By the end, I couldn’t even feel the pain, only the numbness like after a snowy day when everything is white.”
"..."
Guan Anyan was silent. Although Chu Haoman deceived her and the teacher, under this situation, she was completely unable to feel angry towards him. She could only say with difficulty: "What about Miss Wang? She is still waiting for you to go back.
”
"She..."
Chu Haoman lowered his head, pursed his lips, and sighed: "I can't help her, but that's all I can do.
Unless outsiders can predict the situation and invite several great Zen masters from the Zhuxiao realm, such as the Jianquan monk from Tiantai Mountain, who work day and night to transcend the resentment of the souls of the dead, it is only possible to achieve this without harming themselves.
Eliminate mutations.
Otherwise, all I can do is sacrifice myself."
The tunnel fell into silence once again, and everyone's eyes flickered under the firelight, not knowing what they were thinking.
Yu Yong narrowed his eyes. He completely distrusted Wang Linian, who killed Liao Kaifeng, Yan Yan, and almost killed him.
For Chu Haoman, he is more wary than respectful - he has seen too many so-called "gentlemen" who talk about morality and benevolence, but are actually selfish.
"Brother Lu, what do you think?"
Yu Yong said suddenly, and everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to Li Ang.
Scholar Yu's eyes flickered, and he immediately understood Yu Yong's intention.
Among this group of people, Chu Haoman is a gentleman who is willing to sacrifice his life for justice, and Guan Anyan and Ji Xingwang are both from Luli Academy, and they are Miaohong's moral role models.
Wang Linian is always thinking about family interests, and he is willing to die to protect his family.
Only Yu Yong, Jade Scholar, and Luffy have the same positions and interests.
They were originally just here to search and rescue Chu Haoman. They had no ability, no responsibility, and no obligation to sacrifice themselves to save Bingzhou.
They can sacrifice themselves voluntarily, but if Chu Haoman wants to be a saint and wants to drag them to be buried with him,
So is this a bit...
"Ask me what I think?"
Li Ang tilted his head and said, "I'll stand and watch."
"Brother Lu, now is really not the time to joke."
Scholar Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Do you also agree with this plan?"
"I consider myself not a moral model in the strict sense, nor am I a villain who harms others but does not benefit himself.
He's just an ordinary hired monk who takes people's money to eliminate disasters for them. The total reward is only fifty fine gold, and he didn't even pay the full amount in advance."
Li Ang said slowly: "Now I have to make a choice between protecting myself and protecting others, which is very difficult for me."
"..."
Wang Linian was silent after hearing this, although according to the information passed back by his tribe, the monk named Luffy in front of him was the inheritor of the Nine-Headed Flycatcher, and his strength was expected to be at the intermediate to high level of Listening to the Rain Realm.
But during the confrontation just now, he was unable to sense the spiritual energy fluctuations on the opponent's body, which seemed particularly strange.
"Well, when I was wandering at sea, I heard such a story. I wonder if you have heard it."
Li Ang said slowly: "There is such a city where the weather is smooth, the grain is abundant, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
When other places are suffering from floods, droughts and locust plagues, and people are struggling to survive,
Only this city survived.
The people in the city felt that this was God's blessing, and while they were extremely pious to Haotian, they also required themselves to be moral, not to close their homes at night, not to pick up lost things on the road, and no crime occurred in the city.
However, in fact, the reason why this city can be so peaceful is because there is an innocent person who is being tortured all the time in a cellar that no one cares about. The suffering of the innocent person pleases the ghosts and gods, allowing the ghosts and gods to protect this city in the dark.
City.
Is this situation normal? Or is it moral?"
Without waiting for others to express their opinions, Li Ang said to himself: "The person in the cellar is a perfect victim. He has never committed a crime and he doesn't even know why he suffered bad luck.
As for the residents on the ground, because they have no understanding of the situation, they have no moral burden.
If someone unfortunately learns this information, he has two options. One is to remain silent and continue to maintain the status quo.
The other is to let the victim leave. Then the ghosts and gods will no longer protect the city, and the city will fall into the same flood, drought and locust plague as other places, destroying the paradise.
If this person is a moral model, firmly believes that one person cannot be killed to save ten thousand people, chooses the latter option, and believes that a city can be rebuilt by relying on people's own will, morality and strength.
Then things get very interesting - everyone knows that the more people there are, the more corners there are for hiding evil and evil.
Old people who are hungry and cold and have no one to support them;
Children who are helpless and forced to wander;
Poor, sick, and bullied workers;
...
You see, the city itself can eat people. For these people, they have no rights or abilities to change their environment.
There is no difference between the situation and that of the innocent victims who were tortured in the cellar.
It just gives an illusory illusion of ‘having personal freedom’.”
Li Ang spread his hands and said: "There are no absolutely strict and fair moral standards in the world.
When the two options correspond to different moralities and there is no more right to choose, the choice itself is immoral.
Ordinary people have limited abilities and fall into moral dilemmas due to insufficient abilities. The only thing they can do is to do good deeds and not worry about their future."
"Uh..."
Scholar Yu thought for a while, but the expression on his face was still confused, "Brother Lu, do you agree with Chu Haoman's plan?"
"What? Of course not."
Li Ang shook his head and said: "What I'm saying is that ordinary people have limited abilities, so they fall into moral dilemmas due to lack of abilities.
But I am different, I am not a human being."
"What?"
Yu Yong and others said in unison.
"I'm not a human being."
Li Ang said calmly: "My mentor, Xiangx, nicknamed Red Hair, once said to me that the best way to eliminate fear is to face fear, and the best way to eliminate pain is to face pain.
In order to be able to practice special exercises,
He first asked me to torture myself in minor ways, such as putting fine gravel on the soles of my shoes and running all day.
Then the training methods gradually escalated, from inserting bamboo sticks into nails to inducing poisonous insects to bite the whole body.
When this whole process was completed, my body could no longer feel any pain and was transformed into an inhuman being."
As if to prove his words, Li Ang picked up a piece of gravel from the ground and smashed it on his forehead, making a crisp sound.
"Look, it's okay."
Li Ang calmly picked up rocks one after another and performed the stunt of crushing rocks on others' heads.
"Uh..."
Everyone was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to evaluate.
Ji Xingwang opened his mouth, hesitated for a long time, and then said: "Brother Lu, what if that alienated object targets the soul?"
"That would be better."
Li Ang smiled slightly, "The special thing about that technique is that it can not only isolate pain, but also transform pain into happiness.
For you, the Bronze Pavilion is a tomb for burying living people, but for me, it is just a happy house."
The expressions of the rest of the people were particularly exciting, but Li Ang seemed to be fine and said to himself: "Chu Haoman's plan is just for him and Wang Linian to lie down in the bronze temple and kill their resentment in reincarnation.
But mortals eventually have their limits. No matter how strong your willpower is, you will not be able to last long in the face of the deep resentment inherited from the Shang Dynasty.
If you carry it with force, you may become stupid and sluggish, and completely lose consciousness.
The worst-case scenario is that you two can't control your emotions, or you develop resentment and directly detonate the bronze gun in advance - the probability of this possibility is not low.
I'm different. Whether it's ignoring pain or turning pain into pleasure, I can sustain myself for a long time.
So, let me give it a try this time."
"..."
Chu Haoman was stunned, and it took him more than ten seconds to react. He looked at Wang Linian and said, "Okay, okay..."
"Isn't that enough?"
Li Ang nodded with satisfaction, strode forward, and said casually: "By the way, you'd better stand farther away later. In addition, if we can get out, my reward will be quadrupled - in addition to rescuing you."
Go, the Taiyuan Wang family should give me another reward for saving Taiyuan County."
Chu Haoman couldn't laugh or cry, while Wang Linian narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "If you can save Taiyuan County, let alone four times, ten times the reward is completely acceptable."
"Okay, just ten times. I will let someone inform you of the delivery method at that time."
Li Ang nodded, looked at Wang Linian and said: "In the end, one code equals one code. Wang's reward is one thing, but you stabbing Liao Kaifeng and Yan Yan in the back is another thing.
p>
I am a hired monk with professional ethics."
Wang Linian nodded and said: "Okay. If I can get out, I will quadruple the rewards of Liao Kaifeng and Yan Yan and hand them over to their designated beneficiaries in the ghost market. I will also personally spread the news in the ghost market that I killed them.
.If their friends and relatives want to seek revenge, just come."
"Yeah."
Li Ang nodded noncommittally, walked past the two of them, passed through the stone door, and reached the end of the tunnel.
The three curved legs of the bronze dragon pass through the thick rock formations and hang down from the tunnel dome.
Below it is a pile of charred human bones like a hill.
Click, click, click.
Li Ang climbed up the stairs along the bone mountain and climbed to the top. He saw a door that opened from the outside at the bottom of the bronze temple.
As soon as he opened the door, tens of thousands of ghostly cries and wolf howls that were not like human voices rang out, billowing thick fog spewed out, and the Bone Mountain below also ignited faint ghost fires.
"Tsk."
Li Ang shook his head, jumped into the cave, and closed the bronze door heavily.
Boom!
With a loud noise, silence returned to the place.
Sitting in front of Li Ang was a thin, charred, withered body covered in oil.
Zhuo Lu.
Li Ang took a deep breath. Zhuo Lu's body died three hundred years ago, but her remaining parts are still trapped here, neither alive nor dead, suffering eternal torture.
"It's all over."
Li Ang reached out his hand and gently covered the other person's eyes, "Go to sleep."
Gradually, some small sounds sounded in my ears.
Chop with a knife, chop with an axe, burn with fire, drown in water...
The wails of countless people on the verge of death came from all directions, and the resentment turned into a black mist, which slowly settled and shrouded it like a cloth.
Suffocation, pain, despair.
If an ordinary person stayed here, he would probably have a nervous breakdown within a quarter of an hour.
Li Ang sat cross-legged, feeling the changes in the surrounding environment. His expression was still calm and calm, and he calmly assessed the surrounding situation, "Tsk, looking at the degree of materialization of resentment, if there are another dozen reincarnations, the entire Bronze Zombie will probably be directly destroyed."
Explode.
Blast Qishui Ao into the sky and turn Bingzhou into a demon kingdom on earth.
Chu Haoman’s original plan was just to put out the fire with a salary..."
Click click click.
His body expanded slowly but quickly, and the bamboo hat and coir raincoat he originally wore were all stretched and torn by the silk.
Transformed from a human body into a large ball of messy threads.
Zheng!
Hundreds of strands of silk thread shot out quickly and were nailed to the inner wall of the bronze nugget.
The next moment, all the surfaces of the ink filaments were ignited with cyan flames.
The moment the green flame comes into contact with the black mist of resentment, it explodes violently like an open flame meeting oil, hundreds or thousands of times more efficient.
Boom!!!
The entire bronze body burned with green flames.
The Qishui Lake above the lake boiled violently, and countless black fish were swept by the green flames in the water. They retreated from the entity to the mist state, and were annihilated and dissipated.
The tunnel trembled and the ground shook,
Yu Yong and others watched all this happening at a loss. Only Ji Xingwang's eyes suddenly shrank, and he recognized the essence of Qingyan, "Karma fire! He is using karma fire to ignite the resentment in the bronze sword."
p>
"What?!"
Chu Haoman reacted instantly, "No, it won't work. This will only make resentment burst out at once. We have to stop him!"
"It's too late."
Ji Xingwang waved his palm, creating a repulsive force, and forcefully pulled Chu Haoman back, who was about to rush to the end of the tunnel, "Once the fire of karma is ignited, it will not dissipate until the resentment is eliminated. Let's go!"
Now is no longer the time to worry about whether Luffy deceived them or not. Ji Xingwang and others ran away along the road they came from. The villagers of Qishui Village they saw along the way could no longer maintain their bodies and disappeared one after another——
They originally relied on the bronze nugget to exist. Now that the bronze nugget has been ignited by the fire of karma, it will naturally only end up collapsing.
Boom boom boom boom!
At this moment, the bronze nugget erupts like a volcano with fierce flames, and all the sins accumulated over thousands of years are burned to ashes in the karmic fire.
Qishui Lake was evaporated, and the rock formations on the lakeshore were melted by the high temperature, flowing freely like magma.
Wang Linian and others hurriedly escaped underground.
Chu Haoman, who was held in Ji Xingwang's hand, looked back reluctantly and saw a blue pillar of fire rising from the mountains in the distance.
The floating clouds in the sky were also swept up and rolled by the pillar of fire, turning into increasingly thick fire tornadoes, twisting wantonly in the sky, and raining fire on the mountains.
"No..."
Chu Haoman groaned in pain, and his immeasurable resentment was ignited by the fire of karma. The aftermath was enough to burn Qishui'ao within a radius of fifty miles, turning it into a pale earth that could no longer grow any crops or inhabit any living creatures.
The furthest spread can even reach a radius of a hundred miles - the entire Bingzhou City and nearby villages and towns may not be able to be saved.
More importantly, with so much resentment spread throughout Hedong Road, we don’t know how many new mutations will arise and how much damage will be caused in a few years.
"Wait...that is?"
Wang Linian's voice brought Chu Haoman back to his consciousness. He looked intently and saw the towering fire tornado behind the mountains, which was gradually settling and falling slowly.
————
In the bronze nugget, there are countless ink threads that have completely lost their human form, while igniting the fire of karma,
While probing the silk thread out of the penis, a huge drill bit was formed at the bottom of the bronze penis, and with the last use of the Mountain Rat Claw, it drilled downwards rapidly.
Try to take the Bronze Zombie deep underground away from humans before it explodes completely.
Above is the blazing fire tornado, below is the crazy spinning ink drill bit, and in the middle is the bronze dragon with cracks constantly appearing on the surface and ready to collapse at any time.
The safety of the entire Taiyuan County depends on the speed of life and death.
"Oh, it's obviously a first-level mutation, but the monks in the Zhuxiao Realm didn't take action, leaving me, a little monk, to resist the thunder."
The ink silk made an indistinct sound, and resolutely contracted and tightened, turning the bronze nugget heavily onto its side and buckling upside down in the deep rock formation.
The next moment, the bronze dragon finally couldn't withstand the karmic fire that exploded from the inside out, and exploded underground.
